或曰：正惟彼不累爾、彼蓋矯情以取信、將間接貽爾以大累耳。

罢了，我自己并没有累着你们，你们却有人说，我是诡诈，用心计牢笼你们。

罢了，我自己并没有连累你们，你们却有人说，我施诡诈，用心计牢笼你们。

罢了，我自己并没有连累你们，你们却有人说，我施诡诈，用心计牢笼你们。

算了！我没有拖累过你们，但居然有人说我狡猾，用诡计骗你们。

算了！我没有成为你们的重担，却是个狡猾的人，用诡计牢笼你们。

不过就算如此，我也没有成为你们的负担——难道我是狡猾的人，用诡计牢笼了你们吗？

罷了，我自己並沒有累着你們，你們卻有人說，我是詭詐，用心計牢籠你們。

罷了，我自己並沒有連累你們，你們卻有人說，我施詭詐，用心計牢籠你們。

算了！我沒有成為你們的重擔，卻是個狡猾的人，用詭計牢籠你們。

罷了！我沒有拖累着你們，我卻是『乖性狡猾，用詭詐牢籠你們的』！

不過就算如此，我也沒有成為你們的負擔——難道我是狡猾的人，用詭計牢籠了你們嗎？

或云我雖不累爾、而以詭計取爾、

有謗我者、言雖不累爾、而以詭計取爾、

或有人云、我雖不累爾、乃為狡詐之人、以計取爾、

Be that as it may, I have not been a burden to you. Yet, crafty fellow that I am, I caught you by trickery!

In any case, I haven’t caused you any expense. But I’m so tricky! I have caught you by tricking you! Or so you think!

But granting that I myself did not burden you, I was crafty, you say, and got the better of you by deceit.

Some of you admit I was not a burden to you. But others still think I was sneaky and took advantage of you by trickery.

Now granted, I did not burden you; yet sly as I am, I took you in by deceit!

But be that as it may, I did not burden you myself; nevertheless, devious person that I am, I took you in by deceit.

But be that as it may, I did not burden you. Nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you by cunning!

But be it so, I did not myself burden you; but, being crafty, I caught you with guile.

Now granted, I have not burdened you; yet sly as I am, I took you in by deceit!

But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile.

But be that as it may, I have not burdened you. Yet because I was a crafty person, I took you in by deceit!

Even so, I myself didn’t burden you.“ But, being crafty, I caught you with deception.”

蓋吾儕所引以為榮、而問心無疚者、則吾儕立身處世、尤在爾我之間、一秉天主之正直及至誠、不徇私智、惟恃天主聖寵而已。

前次吾在爾處、雖甚貧乏、亦未曾有累於爾、一惟仰給於來自馬其頓之兄弟。蓋吾在在以相累為戒、過去如此、今後亦當如此。我一日抱基督之道、無人能令吾之所以自誇於亞該亞境內者、中途而廢也。

且爾等所受之寵惠、亦何一不如其他教會乎？有所不如者、其惟吾之不以生計相累乎？吾望爾等勿以此見罪！

予今求爾毋使我晤爾時、不得不勇於敢為、用懲以凡夫俗子視吾者。蓋吾人雖生於形體之中、然非從事於形體上之戰爭；

吾儕未嘗用阿諛之詞、是爾等所知也。亦未嘗圖私利、是天主所知也。

蓋吾儕所持以勸人者、真實無妄、純潔無邪、而光明正大也。

毅然棄絕一切暗昧可恥之事、不行巧詐、不貶損天主之道、惟知在天主明鑒之下、藉真理之昌明、而自致於各人之良知而已。

望爾等對吾儕能推心置腹、毋稍存懷疑之意。吾儕實未負一人、未誤一人、亦未欺一人也。

蓋爾已親嘗主味、知其芳飴、
